Hello, this is Abdul Ghafoor, originally from Pakistan and belong to a farmer family, hold M.Sc(Hons.) in Agriculture with major in Soil Science from University of Agriculture, Faisalabad-Pakistan, and Ph.D in environmental soil physics in the supervision of Prof. Nicholas Jarvis, Department of Soil & Environment, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala-Sweden.

I believe that the sustainable use of environmental resources is the biggest challenge for us to provide a better, clean and resilient environment to our future generations. A mechanistic and holistic understanding of the environmental processes is crucial to benefit all stake-holders in the ecosystem influenced by changing climates and erratic weather patterns (extreme dry and wet spells) in a sustainable way.

My research interests include hydrological processes, ecohydrology, nutrient cycling, carbon dynamics, and environmental risk assessments by using models, GIS, and field observations/ measurements.
